Chris: Congratultins on finishing treatment. Unfortunately, the 2-3 weeks after treatment ends are usually the worse.
As Eileen said, you definitely need to take in nutrition during this time. Do you have Magic Mouthwash. It really helps. Also the Fentenyl patches do also.
Hang in there. Things will start getting better.
